Hi all,



It looks like we'll have a good crowd for the upcoming February 24 Owl
Symposium - details at http://www.ohiobirds.org/ and I look forward to
seeing everyone. There's room for more, too, and we welcome you with open
arms for what should be a very interesting and informative event. The
Hueston Woods lodge is enormous, and lots of owlers can fit in there.



Ohio Ornithological Society board member Bill Thompson, known to many as the
editor of Bird Watcher's Digest, is event MC, and his lovely and talented
wife Julie Zickefoose is one of our speakers. If you haven''t seen her new
book, Letters from Eden, which is hot off the presses, check it out. Anyway,
Bill and Julie are excellent musicians, too, and often play with their band,
The Swinging Orangatangs (I know its "Orangutans", but they put the "tang"
in Orangutan!). Jules and Bill, who will be freshly back from an expedition
to Guatemala, will be there and in good tune to play music on the Friday
night before the symposium. Try and come on down Friday night and hang out
with everyone and have some fun.



And to whoever asked, no "Hooters" is not sponsoring this event!
